Funny how no one seemed to mind when conservatives were being removed during the height of censorship...
I couldn't see this being Elon removing bots so quickly... but if it was, he probably wouldn't say anything until the gotcha moment was prime.
People are not being removed most of these idiots have bots following them. They are removing the bots thats all.
Doing so before Musk can uncover the practice.
THIS.
%100 what this is.
Remeber - the userbase defines value.
All of these Social Media companies have inflated the userbase with bots / shell accounts to inflate their everything.
Twitter is much much smaller than people think.
The actual traffic to the site is nowhere what it would be if the amount of people they claim used it.
I can't imagine there isn't some kind of audit right before or after the sale. They are cleaning house as quickly as they can. It won't save them. But it's fun to watch.
Bots have been routinely removed from Twitter. There was a big sweep in 2018 that had conservatives crying foul, https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-43144717
What's good for the goose as they say.
I wonder if they are allowed to make these sweeping changes to the platform in the middle of a buyout... (granted this is what's happening). It may just be these idiots lying about losing followers to create a narrative.
Twitter is removing the bots b4 daddy comes home.
Their bots*
They aren't cleaning up botting in general. They don't want Elon to look under the hood and see they are running this many bots.
